A routine kennel inspection of kennel #6 at Tucson Greyhound Park uncovered the presence of 3 unauthorized syringes; was originally fined $500 by the Board of Stewards and appealed this decision; he did appear the appeal hearing but did not offer any evidence that anyone else owned or was responsible for the presence of the syringes in the kennel; however, the lack of presence of racing greyhounds in the kennel caused the Director to modify the fine imposed from $500 to $300. Since the appellant has already paid the $500 fine, he will be refunded $200

He dropped the 3 deceased greyhounds off at the Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League for cremation. The Peggy Adams ARL contacted the Palm Beach County Animal Care & Control Division regarding the 3 greyhounds, Tess, Legacy & Judy. The bodies of the greyhounds were impounded by the Animal Care & Control Division for necropsies & results were to be shred with DBPR upon completion. DBPR conducted it's own investigation and according to Agganis, he left Davenport, IA at 10 a.m. on Thursday, 8/5/08 with 6 greyhounds in the rear covered bed of his truck and 12 in the air conditioned trailer. Agganis has his truck set up so that cool air from the truck's AC blows into the truck bed to keep the 6 greyhounds in the truck bed cool during transport. He reported that it was approximately 100 degrees outside. 4-5 hours into the trip, Agganis heard one of the greyhounds in the truck ...More...
